Complete CAM -
Version 17 offers a powerful CAM that allows you to use a variety of cutting options for Engraving, spiral or horizontal Pocketing, Profiling, Drilling cycles and customizable menus for creating a CAM that meets your specific manufacturing needs.
17’s 3D SKIN surface function offers tool nose radius compensation as a built-in feature along with Auto Z-Level roughing for both simple and complex toolpath. Version 17 supports 2-Axis Lathe with Grooving, Slotting, Facing and Automatic Roughing including all built-in Collision Detection. Customizable tool libraries and CAM Tool menu make tool selection easy.
Manufacturing -
Post Processors are not only added, they are fully customizable and are easily setup for all g-code based controls. Before actually sending the NC code to the machine, you can use the Solid NC Verification option to preview the complete part cut from your defined solid stock to check for errors in the NC program.
RS232 Communications and DNC capabilities for PC based controls eliminate the need for separate communications software and makes the Version 17 virtually Turnkey for all CNC g-code based controllers. Whether you’re writing NC programs for basic machine functions or 3D surfaces, Version 17 gets it done just as fast and accurate as many of the more expensive systems. This is why so many shops currently use BobCAD software. NOT because of the low price tag. The price is simply an added benefit!

Version 17 CAD/CAM -
“As an adult student I have found it very difficult at best, adapting to the world of CNC. Even with a drafting background it has been frustrating trying to learn CAD until I discovered BobCAD-CAM. The simple, straightforwardness of your software is exceptional. I am achieving results easier and quicker in BobCAD than I ever thought possible in the much higher priced software. BobCAD is quick, easy and has virtually no down time for learning. My instructor is amazed at how fast I now complete class projects. Your tech support surpasses your product. BobCAD-CAM has no competitors because BobCAD-CAM IS the competition. Anyone interested in productivity, efficiency, ease of use and investment capitol should look no further than BobCAD. I know I won’t.”
